(From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN. Feb. 7. (Special Telegram.) Irate and distinctly displeased with the house committee of Investigation of the Omaha elections, the senate committee will either conduct an entirely Independent In quiry or none at all. Kxception to the methods of the house committee are taken by Senator Hoagland of the committee appointed In the upper house. Admission of hearsay evidence by the house Investigators, he declares, has been a serious error. If we conduct an Investigation It will be In exactly proper legal form," said Senator loagland. He also said that owing to the ncatlsfactory work of the house committee It was possible that the members of the senate committee would refuse to have any thing to do with the Inquiry. The senate and house committees were named for the purpose of conducting an concurrent Investigation. The effect of the posslbl refusal of the senate committee to act leaves the status of the Inquiry so far as It has progressed uncertain. The house committee Is to resume the haring In Omaha at the Paxton hotel qext Monday. Under present conditions It Is within the limits of possibility that the sen ate will take up an independent Investiga tion at that time. Representative B. S. Harrington, chair- nan of the house ccmmlttee, announced today that he had been requested to fur nish a copy of the testimony taken for the use of the senate committee. He said that he would forward an order for a transcript of the evidence to Frank Sutcllffe, the stenographer, In Omaha, at once. The senate committee, through the state ments of Senator Hoagland, has already given an opinion on the value of the evi donee taker. - - - ' The announced attitude of Chairman Har rington toward the Investigation has been one of liberality In rules of evidence. He declared at the Omaha sessions of the In quiry that the purpose of hearing was for the purpose of gaining the basts of re vision of existing election laws rather than to fix blame for past irregularities. Figures on the number of male voters in the Third ward are to be furniwhed to Chairman Harrington by the United States census bureau some time this week.

CONTESTANTS PAY BILLS Chairman Bedford Goes to Lincoln with Some Suggestions. ELECTION OFFICERS ONE PRICE Will Ask State to Par for the Feed of Prisoners After tnnalrtlon I n til They Hearh the Pen itentiary. J. W. Pedford. chairman of th cnttntv commissioners left Tuesday for Lincoln. l-re he w.M take up vera. Important county mntters with senators from here. In the h pe of resultntit l"tnl charges for the better. He has four amendments which he thinks would be for th best Interests of the county besides economy. The first of these is that wncn a con test is called before the honrd of can vsssers that the contestant r.hould pay the cost of the contest rather than the county, as has been the law In years past. He believes that election officers. Judges and clerks in the registration class, should receive the same salary all over the county. As matters now stand Judges and clerks in South Omaha receive W a day, In Omnha t a tiny, and in the country districts K.St) a day. He also thinks deputy assessors should be nominated in caucus in their own pre- incts, which would save about Jl.OHO a ear, as now the names mtiRt be rotated pon the big blanket ballot. He expects also to take up the matter of the ftedins of state prisoners between the time of conviction and beginning of sentence. Often these prisoners lay In the ouiity Jail sixty days after they have been convicted before they are taken to he penitentiary. The county has to feed them during all of that time.

There has been enough ducking this Issue," continued Mr.' Funkhouser. "and want to see this thing decided one way or the other. I have boen through similar fights before and I want to get this over as quickly as possible.", That the resolution will be defeated is the opinion of Harry Zimman, who Is op posing the measure. Weather Balloons to Kise at Fort Omaha One a Day to Be Sent Up for the Next Month To Study Conditions. Unless there Is a hitch In the program the first of twenty or twenty-five balloons will be sent up from Fort Omaha Wednes day by the Agricultural department to se cure scientific data . concerning the upper air currents, barometric pressures and tem peratures. There will be one balloon re leased each day following throughout most of the balance of the month. P. J. Sherry and N. B. Robertson, who are to be In charge of the research work, arrived In the city Tuesday and are spend ing their time between Fort Omaha and the weather bureau getting things In shape for the ascensions. Other researches of a similar nature have been made from Fort Omaha, but previous ones were made In the summer and fall. It Is the desire to take . winter observa tions, and since Omaha Is nearly In the center of the path of winter storms this city was selected. The facilities for filling balloons at Fort Omaha also attracted the experts, who come 'from Mt. Weather, Va. The balloons are about eight feet In height and to them are attached the necessary In struments for recording the pressures, alti tudes and temperatures. The balloons soar to a height of ten to fifteen miles and drift on an average of 100 miles. Two dollars Is offered for th. return of each of the bal loons.

Four Greeks Killed as Result of Armed Uprising; 200 Flee Miners Complain Americans Are Fa vored in Weighing: Coal and Refuse to Accept Compromise. SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 7.-An armed uprising of Greek coal miners at Kennll- worth, Carbon county, Utah, was sup pressed yesterday after four men had been killed, one fatally wounded and several others slightly hurt by flying bullets. Tonight the rioters, nearly 300 In number, are retreating through the hills In scattered bands with Helper station on the Rio Grande railway as their objective point. Posses numbering altogether about 300 men are chasing the Greeks to prevent their escape. As the latter are armed, further fighting Is expected. The trouble began last Friday when the Greek miners complained that discrimina tion was shown In the weighing of coal In favor of Americans. A! proposal from the mine superintendent that they appoint their own weighers failed to give satisfaction. This morning the Greeks took to the foot hills and commenced a desultory fire upon the Americans who were going to work. In attempting to . dislodge the sharpshooters. Deputy Sheriff Thomas Jackson, was killed - and another deputy was fatally wounded. When two of the Greek had been killed, one mortally ' wounded and five others captured, the rest took to flight.

MANY YEARS WORK IS REWARDED Ouly Sllaht Amendment Made to .Nebraska Senator's Bill Labor Will Kejolee at Passage of the Mraurf, (From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 7. (Special Tele gramsSenator Burkett's name will be. heralded throughout the domain of labor as father of the locomotive boiler inspec tion bill which passed the senate today with a single amendment of some three lines directing the attorney general t3 do certain things when a caseNs on appeal. For years Burkett has labored zealously for a federal boiler Inspection bill. He had the support of labor and the antagonism of railroads. - Other bills "were Introduced, Representative Mann of Illinois-' having been among those to offer a modification of the Burkett measure, which might be less drastic In character and measurably satisfactory to the railroad Interests. Early In his career as president Mr. Taft urged upon congress the paramount necessity of the federal Inspection of locomotive boil ers and be was a champion of the Burkett bill. As measures of similar character fell Into the legislative hopper with modifications of the original measure a series of conferences were held at th. White House, patrtcipated in by Senator Burkett, Congressman Mann and others and as a result changes In the Burkett bill wer. made, at least changes from his original bill, but having the same objece always, in view federal inspection of locomotv. boilers. And so Senator Burkett Introduced a revised bill which passed th. house January 10 and It Is this bill which passed the senate today with an amendment.. It now only awaits the final approval of the president to make it a law. It Is understood that the bill not only Is satisfactory to enginemen, but to railroads as well. BUTTER AND EGGS HAVE TAKEN TEMPORARY CLIMB Dealers, However, Think the I pvrard Move Is bnt Temporary Be cans atf (torm. Eggs have taken a temporary climb since the coming of the snowstorm of Sunday and they are now reported 1 cent higher than before, but dealers say th. higher price Is only temporary, as th. good hen hah mad. up her mind to start her spring laying and th. price la expected to drop even further than It raised when the storm clears away. Country butter is about the same as It was, but creamery butter has taken a raise of 1 cent In response to up ward move made at Elgin Monday. "One of the most noticeable effects of the recent dropping of the price In butter Is that a large number of housewives who have been buying butterlne have switched back to butter," said Manager King of the grocery department at Hayden Bros. "We have noticed It because of the great falling off In the sales of butterlne and th. re markable Increase In the demand for butter." rnfimouu Follows a (old But never follows the use of Foley's Honey and Tar, which checks the cough and expels the cold.

The temperance advocate and total abstainer are strong In "their declara tion that drunkenness is a mean, low and disgraceful habit, from which any ordinary person can free himself by the exercise of his will power alone. Medical men, by patient research, have demonstrated that drunkenness Is a poisoning and that the drunkard is one In need of medical attention. The diseaso of alcoholism can surely be cured, thanks to the Neal treat ment, which has demonstrated that it Is an infallible remedy striking at ones at the roots of toe trouble. There baa always been a,,dennuid., Jor., the treat ment for habitual druakrenncss which can be administered Internally, with out the uso of dangerous hypodermic Injections. , , Experience has taught that no treat ment other than the Neal. Cure has ever been successful Jn treating drunk enness in less than four weeks' tlma. it makes no difference how long a man has been drinking, how much or how little he drlnks. or what be drinks, the Neal treatment has never failed to cure In three days' trae. and with out the use of that devilish little tor mentor of the flesh,, the bypodermlo syringe. Just bear in mind that there is no such thing aa a "secret cure" for drunkenness, and you are taking gr.at risk in administering, these remedies. For booklet, "The.
